In recent years, while catastrophic accidents in railway transportation tend to be avoided successfully, general accidents which cause minor loss or casualties still occur occasionally and thus become main part of railway accidents. So, to make effective control of general accidents, the risks should be identified. To meet this end, fault tree analysis (FTA) is employed to analyze historical general accidents. Then influencing factors are roughly divided into human factors and equipment system factors. The relationships between the factors and general accidents are analyzed using the improved analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and methods of risk identification. The importance of the factors is thus evaluated. Results of the evaluation are helpful to management.
